We don’t really cover the mainstream mega popular artists on BD much. Honestly, it’s mainly because they usually play it so safe that they’re not worth writing about. But god DAMN did Rihanna decide to go a bit dark with her latest video for “BBHMM” and it absolutely deserves a spot on this site.
The video, which was directed by Rihanna and Megaforce (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Madonna), shows the singer and a few of her friends terrorizing a woman that they’ve kidnapped, forcing her to drink and do drugs, beating and abusing her repeatedly. The crew manage to avoid the investigations of a police officer, who is played by Eric Roberts (Best of the Best, The Human Centipede 3). The video additionally stars Mads Mikkelsen of NBC’s “Hannibal” as the kidnapped woman’s husband.
Look, that description doesn’t belie just how much nudity, sadism, and violence is in the video. Personally, I couldn’t stand the music but the video definitely had far more pros than cons. If you’re going to check it out, be sure to do so in a place where you won’t get caught as this video is absolutely NSFW.
